Welcome Message:

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure that we invite you to participate in the 9th International Conference on Magnesium Alloys and their Applications which will be held in Vancouver, Canada from July 8th-12th, 2012.

The objective of the 9th International Conference on Magnesium Alloys and their Applications is to provide a forum where representatives from industry (producers and users), public laboratories and universities can meet, discuss and present the most recent advances in magnesium alloy science and technology.

The theme of the Conference is “Innovation and Progress Through Research and Technology.” The technical sessions will integrate this theme and cover a wide range of activities from casting to end use products. We are planning to have a special session which examines how innovation can be fostered, including models for research partnerships with both universities as well as government laboratories.

Along with our technical program, Vancouver is a superb venue, offering an endless choice of things to see and do.

Please join us July 8th – 12th, 2012 in Vancouver, Canada for the 9th International Conference on Magnesium Alloys and their Applications!
